ḵ’els^[4] is a mountain located at the head of lekw’emin (Jervis Inlet)^[5] above the ancestral shíshálh village site of x̱enichen^[6] and within the Pacific Ranges of the Coast Mountains of British Columbia, Canada. The mountain is associated with a shíshálh legend about a great flood.^[4]

In 1860, during a survey by HMS Plumper, the mountain was named "Mount Victoria" after Princess Beatrice Mary Victoria who was the ninth child of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert.^[7] The name ḵ’els, which means "anchor" in she shashishalhem, was legally restored on June 21, 2023.^[4]

The first colonial ascent of ḵ’els was made in 1931 by Arthur Tinniswood Dalton and Percy Williams Easthope.^[1]
